Glad to see more entrants not backed/beholden to major labels, congrats. Very clean and well designed site, pleasant to use.

Bandcamp currently has most of the indie diy music distribution market, do you consider them your competitor? What would you consider your advantages over them - to artists? Bandcamp take a much smaller cut (15% on digital, 10% on merch [edit: forgot PayPal fees 4-6%]), offer free downloads, and are agnostic in the sense they are just a platform: customisable pages etc.

Good luck too!

Glad you like it. Bandcamp is certainly a competitor at this point however we'll have to see how we evolve, more as a buying platform or discovery platform.

As to the advantages over Bandcamp, they are just a store, we help provide exposure as well, allowing artists to be discovered via various channels.

Can you elaborate on these various channels? It's easy to say you provide exposure, but once you have 500k bands, how do you offer any individual band valuable exposure?
